E/CN.4/2006/16/Add.3 page 21 75. Regarding the judiciary, the following should be undertaken: (a) The Ministry of Justice should create specializations in racism and racial discrimination within the tribunals and the prosecutors’ offices, to enhance the degree of implementation by judges and prosecutors, of the existing anti-racism legislation. The specialized prosecutors within the Working Group on racism in the State Attorney’s office of the State of Pernambuco would be a positive example to follow; (b) Regular training of judges and prosecutors on this issue should be organized; (c) A system of control should be established in the judiciary to monitor the prosecution of the racially motivated violence and crimes against these groups. 76. The Office of the Public Prosecutor should be given investigative powers. At present, only the police carry out investigations, and prosecutors have almost no leverage in qualifying the facts submitted to them. This system is not appropriate in a setting where many police officers are involved in such crimes. 77. The Government should urgently commence the training of teachers in order to implement the law on the teaching of African history in schools. Teachers of all subjects should receive this training. The regional histories of Africa drafted by United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization could be used as a reference text. 78. A national memorial on slavery should be erected, to pay tribute to the millions of victims and preserve the memory of the Afro-descendant component of Brazilian history. 79. While acknowledging the commitment of the Government to the recognition of the quilombos, the Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination and related intolerance recommends that the Government should: (a) Undertake a census of the quilombos to assess the living conditions and the degree of recognition of the quilombos land; (b) quilombos; Proceed urgently to the recognition and handing over of property titles to the (c) Urgently organize appropriate security for the quilombos communities and their leaders; (d) Guarantee the provision of fundamental goods and services such as food, health, housing and education; (e) Consider giving directly to communities the financial resources allocated for the development of quilombos, since according to allegations, these resources do not reach the quilombos; (f) Create teaching tools on the quilombos in order to give more visibility to their history and emphasize their identity as part of the living memory of the history of the country.
